Question

If a box has a mass of 300kg what is the weight on earth

Answer 1

323.4 N

Step-by-step explanation:

weight = m * gravitational force

= 300 * 9.8 (gravitational force of earth)

= 323.4 Newtons

Answer 2

W = 2940 N

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 300 kg

Let W is the weight of the box on earth. The weight of an object is equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration due to gravity. Mathematically, it is given by :

`W=mg`

`W=300\ kg* 9.8\ m/s^2`

W = 2940 N

So, the weight of the box on the earth is 2940 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
